  1. WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    Henry VIII would surely name Fitzroy’s son as heir after his legitimate children (meaning only Edward) and BEFORE both Mary and Elizabeth Tudor.
  2. The Eagle of the East, Rhomania: An Eastern Roman Timeline (1196 - 1245)

    I like to imagine this story is not how the events actually happened (I mean he probably was pissed for waiting a week but I doubt he would go that far). Instead, this a version created by the Byzantines after his death to further cement his legacy as "The Great"

    Demographics of a world without the Great War megathread

    Ireland was previously part of the UK, and once it became a Dominion, it's geographic proximity and close history would make migration more likely. And the labor shortages of the 1930s would be influenced by the Great War, as many were injured and died. The Great War also caused a decline in the...

    Kentucky Fried Politics: A Colonel Sanders Timeline

    Another great update. Thanks again for using that quote I suggested to you :) Grammer won! Let's see what the next four years are like.
  5. WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    Depends if the Dudleys climb like OTL. Wasn't the original plan Jane to one of Protector Seymour's sons?
  6. Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    The Blitz provided the foundation of the dehousing concept but it wasn't adopted because 'evil Germans' nor British 'any means' but a need to use resources to be 'the most efficient'. The analysis of the reaction of the British population to the Blitz was that the demolition of people's houses...

    Oh sorry, I meant to quote El Pip and I quoted you by mistake.
  10. in U.S. circa 1990, “nanny state” takes the intellectual space of “political correctness”

    Tax these things but don't ban them - tax cannabis in the same way. Indirect taxation is more voluntary in that nobody has to.smoke drink or bet.

    Difference between draft and volunteering. I would end curfews by withdrawing all federal aid from any city with one.
  12. It's The North. They're different up there: A British TV TL

    There's no reason to apologise. I'm a Yorkshireman and the idea that I'm a "northerner" rankles with me. It seems that anything North of the M25 is classified as "Northern" and I suppose in strictly geographical terms that's true but Yorkshire's position on maps of England makes us more in the...

  15. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    I completely understand that. I'm pointing out how Walker and others don't see it that way. If Takahata wasn't on the record as heavily pro-Article 9, one may suspect that was deliberate. There's a vocal minority of ultraconservative revisionists who've made Japanese school textbooks and...

    Flag Thread V

    ...did finally get chosen and adopted as the official flag of the entire celestial body and millions of people. Now, there is a flag that all Selenites* can rally around. Dubbed as the "White Crescent" flag. Adopted in 2146, meant to be universally recognizable and fully represented all Lunar...
  17. AHC: is it feasible if the world started diversfying away from fossil fuels much earlier

    Well if you can avoid the World Wars, the gradual rise of road transport will be slowed, and cities will remain more compact.

    WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    True, though I thought she calmed down on that when Edward was born? IIRC the two got along well and Mary was a Mother figure for Edward. Probably not. Though if Henry had support what’s she going to do. Maybe she could try to revolt but she would need Spanish support.

    What if Henry VIII had been better prepared to be King?

    Honestly might be a better situation than OTL. Henry can’t really marry Catherine, so she probably sticks around in England for a while and helps her brother-in-law arrange his marriage to her niece. Maybe there’s rumours the pretty young widow is being a little TOO supportive of the young King...

    WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    Swedish match works for Elizabeth. And maybe Guilford Dudley for Katherine Grey, to tie the Dudleys in too?
